(minor flash warning)

Okay, you think it might be high time to finally get the mail. The rain's probably stopped, right? You (tragically) have to take off your fabulous garb, but a big ol' swig could lift any girls spirits, right?

==>

ehehehe... This stuff is a little strong.

>Raye: go for the door.

You reach for the handle. Drunk? Who's drunk? certainly not you. You are the soberest girl on the block. Reaching for the door handle is a perfectly coordinated breeze for a frequently sober girl, such as yourself.

==>

The door handle promptly flies open without the tips of your fingers even reaching it. Crap, crap crap crap. Either you are profoundly ignorant of your surroundings, or you were too busy in your sipping and puttering to notice her footsteps. Or a secret third option, she is a ninja and silent as the night itself, and your bewilderment is of no fault of your own! She definitely does not look happy with you, though.

==>

Look, even her precious 'Little Cal' is pissed at you. Look what you did, nosy girl.

>Enact your top secret plan:

Alright! your mom's liquor cabinet should be where it normally is........ Yes! Your destination reaps rewards! Its not moved! You're not sure why it would be moved, but you're relieved it's still there regardless. After all, if it was gone, where would you get your alcohol from? (...Besides your sylladex.)

==>

Woah, she's totally stocked up since you last did one of your little raids!

There's so many different kinds! It's mainly wine, but there's some rosé , a bit of vodka, some gin and flavoured liquors, and... tongsul. Uh. It's untouched, but you're still confused as to why she'd have something like this. Totes not her style, and nasty to boot. Maybe it's for a guest? But then again you don't have people over... like... ever... With some careful maneuvering you select a bottle of rosé from the back with your nimble thieving digets. Something your mother will be less likely to notice.

>Get up and take scope of what you could have fun with:

You get up to take a proper look around the room. It's been a while since you've tried on one of her dresses, and that record player sure looks mighty empty without one of those records in it.

>Set some mood music:

>Set some mood music:

You figure you'll just grab the one from her desk. You haven't seen this one before, but then again you normally just grab the record closest to you. wonder what it'll sound like....

>Take a big 'ol listen:

Holy shit this is so ass. scratch that, you will NOT be listening to this. How does your mom even bear to listen to this stuff??? There's no way. yeah, you think you'll rather stick to silence.

>Rummage through her dresses:

ohoho this gets you EXCITED!

>Enact a fashion show like the model you are:

Why yes, you CAN sign an autograph, how nice of you to ask sir! The cover of vogue? why, you'd be honored! but you aren't sure if you can fit it into your schedule with all these gigs you already have! Ahh, such is the life of a model. Which is something you definitely are. You only wish you had the, erhm.. 'assets' to fit these dresses properly. the illusion works so much better when they fit right... Wait. one of them does? That's weird. maybe its a present you weren't supposed to know about yet? oopsies.

>Instigate operation sneak into your moms room:

You generally try to go through this hallway as fast as possible, it kind of creeps you out. Though, so does the rest of your house. You always feel like the paintings are looking at you, but maybe that's just your nerves speaking.

Don't tell her you said so, but your mom's obsession with her hand puppet is a liiitttle off the rails? Totes overkill.

>Observe the worst painting of the bunch:

Now this one just looks kind of tacky in your opinion. You're sure your mom finds some meaning in it, though. She has a bit of an odd sense of humor. Not that you don't, you just don't really understand the punchline of all this.. Maybe there isn't one? Maybe that's the joke...

ow. Trying to decipher your mom's whims is giving you a headache.

==>

Odd mom humor aside, you're finally at your destination!

The door isn't locked (thank goodness) so you can just take a liiitttle peek through the crack, and…….

Nobodies there, phew. Time to enact your top secret plan!!!

>Enact your top secret plan:

[ask-offbeatstuck]

Raye when are you planning to confess to Joel? ✧⁠\⁠(⁠>⁠o⁠<⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠✧

Hmmmmm, you aren't sure..

While you very much want to, it's all a matter of waiting for the right time! You can't just confess your love on any old day, no no no…. it needs to be special.

You think you'll save it for when you finally meet in person! (whenever that is...) You'll take his hands, look into his eyes, and profess your undying love!!! And then he'll confess that he's loved you forever and ever…..

at least, you hope!

[ask-offbeatstuck]

Raye, gurl. Have you even seen Joel before? Like do you even know how he looks like??

Of COURSE you do!!!!

He sent you a picture of himself for your birthday last year, because he's just the most gentlemanly man EVER!!!!! His pop took it for him, so it's like... a liiiittle blurry, but you treasure it anyways.

It's kept safe and sound right under your pillow so your mom doesn't find it. She's…. uh, she's not the best when it comes to handling your personal belongings. It's not that you don't trust her, you do!!! You just… don't wanna risk it.

>go check the mail:

Jeez, you don't know if you're too keen on going out there...

==>

You just KNOW if you go out into that storm that you'll be miserable!

Your driveway is a SUUUPER long walk. Plus, it's raining like crazy!!!! Your hair's gonna get totally ruined, and you spent so long doing it! As if you're gonna let that go to waste, It takes like a miiiiilllllion years to get it back into shape after getting it wet.

You figure you'll muck around for a while until the rain stops. Surely AC has enough patience to wait, right? He's a big boy!

Plus, you have plans to have some fun first...
